Speculation continues to mount regarding a Manny Pacquiao comeback, and the Filipino star is aiming high after stating he would fight Gervonta Davis.
Pacquiao, one of boxing’s best ever fighters, has often been to the top of the sport following a memorable career that saw him reign as world champion on multiple occasions.
Sharing the ring with the likes of Floyd Mayweather, Oscar De La Hoya, and Ricky Hatton, Pacquiao was a huge attraction who often entertained.
In 2021, Pacquiao was set to face Errol Spence in a huge welterweight encounter, but injury to the Texan saw Pacquaio instead take on Yordenis Ugas.
From the opening bell, Pacquiao did not seem himself as it looked like his lengthy career had finally caught up with him after so many years at the highest level.
Ugas was the better throughout and after securing victory on the scorecards, it appeared that Pacquiao's illustrious and legendary run was over.
Although the Ugas bout is his last official contest, Pacquiao has been linked to several comebacks, most notably against Mario Barrios and Conor Benn.

Now Pacquiao is mentioning the name of ‘Tank’ and he is ready to do battle with the brilliant Baltimore man.
“I can fight anybody, even Gervonta Davis, I’m not scared of anybody,” said Pacquiao when speaking to Seconds Out .
Whether Pacquiao secures a huge fight with Davis remains to be seen but it is clear to see that has no intentions of staying away from the ring.
